Simply by sharing your old glasses you can literally change someone’s life. Your old glasses can mean the world to someone who needs them.
For someone who can’t afford a pair of glasses, your gift might mean they are able to become a productive member of their community again or the option to continue a valuable family supporting vocation that would otherwise be lost due to poor sight.
To donate a pair of glasses you can contact your local Optometrist, Service Club or Eye Care Center to locate an appropriate organization who are collecting glasses for this purpose or simply send them to us and we will make sure they find their way to those who need them.
Each pair of glasses is tested for prescription strength, sorted and then distributed to someone who needs them. All we ask is that they be in good condition.
